[QUOTE="mmbh, post: 350951, member: 13423"] We've had a few Dental School students come through our lab as well to work on their technical skills. It was years ago though. I will tell you this, I personally know someone on the admissions board of one of the top dental schools in the U.S. Dental Tech skills in and of themselves make zero difference for admissions. You have to have the grades and scores to get in. [B]If you have the grades to make it through the academic stage then your tech skills will help you immensely on the clinical side[/B]. I was also told this by someone else in admissions at another top 5 dental school in the U.S. that academics is really the only thing that mattered to them. I do Find it interesting, because the same friend on the admissions board also complains about the lack of the current crop of students to want to do any technical work at all. The lab work required nowadays to graduate is close to zero compared to what it used to be. It is very unfortunate. [/QUOTE]
